edit: Which file / file type are you looking at?

Any idea why the second timestamp is ahead of time with regard to the first timestamp?

And what issues do you experience except the changing attribute?

- What file systems are you using? Any other than Windows NTFS involved?

- Which file type are you looking at? You said 'application', but which application?

- Any idea why your second screenshot (you called it 'after change') shows a timestamp earlier than on the first screenshot?

Hi Swuehl,

Please look into below screenshots Initially they showing only A :

After that I'm going to General tab and check the read-only option then here attribute showed RA

Initially it was unchecked..

this happen , when am check the read-only check mark ,

In my first post this same attribute contain "AT" : What is the mean of AT and why it's viable ?

Please give me root path of this issue.

Advance Thanks,

Munna

It changed to AT after doing exactely what?

Is this reproduceable?

It seems to me that this attribute 'T' means 'temporary', like you already mentioned above.

I can't tell why it changed to 'AT' because you haven't told us what happened to that file.

Not sure if this causes any issues, maybe if you want to use backup tools on that file.

If you want to remove the flag, have a look at the power shell script shown here:

If you don't know what's this all about, please ask your system or server administrator.

This is not really a QV specific issue.

Hi Munna,

is this actually causing an issue for you? If not, then just ignore it!
